Owner’s reaction:“Oh cool” [the child]. “Ohhhhhh my god” [the parent]. 12. “Romanto Panto” Via: BBC There's no getting away from it – opening windows or having an extractor fan will remove nasty odours and introduce fresh air, which will, in turn, stop mould and mildew build up, which brings with it its own smells. Sound Strength (dB) –Measured in dB (deciBel). dB is measured at different frequencies. dB(A) (or LpA) is a single-figure value used to describe the total sound strength for all frequencies in a way similar to the sensitivity of the ear. dB(C) (or LpC) particularly focuses on low frequencies and better reflects how a sound is perceived by people with impaired hearing. Dried herbs and flowers: lavender, rose petals, herbs, whether home-grown or shop-bought can be crumbled into a sweet-smelling pot pourri. Replace as soon as the scent fades. There is nothing worse than walking into your bedroom before bed only to get hit with a wall of stale air.
Your hotel has to supply the accommodation promised so if you were told it offered a heated pool and air-conditioning, for example, you're entitled to get these. It means the supplier – in this case the hotel – must carry out the service of providing a hotel room with 'reasonable care and skill'. Regardless, if its the middle of summer, you might need to take the necessary precautions to keep your room cool. A warm room often feels much more stuffy than a cool one. Dust mites and mold are more likely to grow in a warm room as well. Articulation Loss of CONSonants (%-Alcons) –Alcons is the measured percentage of Articulation Loss of Consonants by a listener. % Alcons of 0 indicates perfect clarity and intelligibility with no loss of consonant understanding, while 10% and beyond is growing toward bad intelligibility, and 15% typically is the maximum loss acceptable. Consonants play a much more significant role in speech intelligibility than vowels. If the consonants are heard clearly, the speech can be understood more easily.

We've put together guides on bathroom cleaning (see below), but don't forget to clean those often overlooked areas such as right behind the toilet, that corner of the shower where mould is beginning to thrive and, of course, the bin. Absorption Class –Classification of sound absorbers into Sound Absorption Classes A-E. Class A absorbers affords 90% absorption, Class B 85% and so on. Sound Absorption – Means that sound energy is converted into mechanical vibration energy and/or heat energy. Sound absorption is expressed as the sound absorption coefficient α or the sound absorption class (A-E) according to EN ISO 11654 or NRC/SAA according to ASTM C 423. Alternatively, if you do have fans in your room and the air in your bedroom is just particularly stale or humid, either of these two devices can help additionally.
Sound Pressure Level (dB) –The pressure variations caused by sound waves in air are called sound pressure. The lowest sound pressure level which can be heard is 0 dB, known as the hearing threshold. The highest level which can be tolerated is called the pain threshold and is around 120 dB. Sound Absorption Class –Classification of sound absorbers into Sound Absorption Classes A-E, according to EN ISO 11654, including frequencies 200-5000 Hz. Obviously, washing and drying pet beds regularly will keep them smelling fresh – and they'll be more hygienic, too. But if that time-consuming task isn't working for you, putting activated charcoal near their beds will absorb those odours.

I can’t imagine paying a designer to come to my house and ending up with some of these bad room makeovers. The BBC show “changing rooms” and the TLC show “trading spaces” redid the rooms or people’s choosing and sometimes it ended really really badly. Many of these rooms don’t even look functional. If you’re bored in your house and considering redoing things, take these pics as a warning. Here are some Trading Spaces fails, BBC Changing Rooms fails, and bad room makeovers. 1. Bathroom Decorated With More Than 6,000 Flowers Via: TLC Owner’s review:“Barbara, it’s gorgeous.”“Look at the wall.” 24. “Tribute To All Things Circular” In Doncaster Via: BBC Although they don’t help with air ventilation, a key benefit of dehumidifiers is they do make the air feel fresher and easier to breath given that they reduce humidity. Keep the temperature down Owner’s reaction:“It’s [friggin] amazing.” If you enjoyed these bad room makeovers, you may or may not also enjoy this funny stuff:
Shut away for 16 hours at a time, they were starved, violently beaten, forbidden from speaking or using the toilet and routinely humiliated. Jade was left feeling broken and suicidal. That being said, keep your door propped open at all times and don’t shut it unless you absolutely need to. Remember the olden days when people used to take their rugs outside and beat them, or hang their duvets out of their bedroom windows? They did it for a good reason – getting rid of house dust (er, that's probably mostly your dead skin, people) cuts down on household smells and allowing damp, dank or sweaty fabrics to dry right out prevents whiffy mould and mildew forming. Condensation is a result of poor ventilation and that, as we know, brings with it mould, mildew and odours. So, cutting down on condensation (skip to our guide on how to stop condensation to find out more) is a must-do. Opening windows is the easiest way to do it, but dehumidifying products will help, too.

Little to no airflow filtering in and out of your room through windows can cause humidity to build up. In turn, stale air, high levels of humidity, and warm temperature can create a perfect environment for mold growth in your bedroom. Of course, you might think “well yeah but even with bad ventilation the CO2 level cant get to be that bad”. You might be surprised, however. One little at home CO2 test documented here found that with doors and windows closed, CO2 levels got close to 3500ppm in a room with two people in just a few hours. This level of CO2 is enough to cause nausea and headaches, which of course, is not healthy at all. How to improve ventilation with windows in your bedroom Sound Absorbers –Materials that absorb sound energy and convert it into other forms of energy. They improve room acoustics by removing sound reflections, thus reducing the noise and the reverberation time. Although exhaling CO2 is just part of being human, a room of abnormally high levels of CO2 can be quite damaging to your health. Various studies 2 suggest that living in areas of high levels of CO2 can have adverse effects on sleep quality. High levels of CO2 in your bedroom can leave you waking up with headaches, dizziness, and fatigue. Over the long run, this can be detrimental to your health.
However, if you don’t happen to have windows in your room, if your air ventilation system malfunctioned, or if the air circulation in your house is poor in general, you may feel as though improving airflow in your room is a lost cause. Most foods will stay fresher for longer in sealable containers but there are other benefits: you won't be able to smell them if they're under a secured lid and household pests won't be able to either. (Find out how to get rid of mice if that's the kind of pest you're thinking of.) Sound Insulation –The ability of a building element or building structure to reduce the sound transmission through it. The sound insulation is measured at different frequencies, normally 100-3150 Hz. Airborne sound insulation is expressed by a single value, Dn,c,w , Rw or R’w. Impact sound insulation is expressed by a single value Ln,w or L’ n,w . Owner’s review: “It is red, isn’t it?” 6. “Prisoners Of Love” Solitary Confinement Bedroom Via: TLC
16. “Funky Family” Room
The more fans the merrier but you can significantly improve your rooms air circulation with just two. Position the first one so that it is pointing into your room on one inner side of your doorway. Position the other so that it is on the other inner side of your open doorway so that it is angled to blow air out of your room. If you’ve arrived home with memories you’d rather forget, then make sure you make an immediate complaint.
